The worst pop up unregulated bank known to man.

My mother has £4k in the bank. She's now passed away and they are refusing to pay my mom's funeral!

Financial ombudsman have said they have tons of complaints, but due to them being unregulated they are awaiting more powers to argue against this delboy firm!

Hi Luke,

We’re really sorry to hear about your loss. This sounds like an incredibly difficult situation, and we understand how distressing this must feel.

Chip is a regulated company and works with fully authorised UK banks to hold customer funds. In the case of a bereavement, there is a specific process we must follow before any funds can be released, including verifying documentation. This is to ensure we’re protecting the account and acting correctly.

If you do have any further questions we can always be reached at hello@getchip.uk via email.

David B

I didn’t draw on Chip’s service because of a change in financial priorities. What appealed to me was the welcome I was given to the Chip community. My experience with the company was genuinely pleasing and I felt valued as a new investor. Great experience; a shame I had to exit from Chip. If it helps, I would certainly recommend this investment company if future investors were to draw on this service provider.

Great experience. So quick to respond to queries and staff are so polite and helpful. Needed a statement for my tax return on one of the accounts I had closed. This had to be done manually by Chip but was still provided in less than 24 hrs. Outstanding service and would not hesitate in recommending them.

Saw Chip and was interested in their offers

I heard about Chip and was interested in their bank account where your money can earn you prizes. Setting up a new account was easy. Unfortunately when I went to transfer money the only way seemed to be through your bank account even though I added a debit card. Chip then want visual access to my bank account for 90 days. Absolutely no way so I shut my account immediately. A total waste of time.

Hi Natasha,

Sorry to hear this was your experience, and we understand why that would feel frustrating.

To clarify, Chip uses secure Open Banking connections to link your bank account. This is what allows you to transfer money in and out, and to automate saving, we can't see or control your account in the way it might sound, it simply lets us read certain information, with your permission, to provide the service. It’s also time-limited and regulated.

At the moment, debit cards can be added for certain features, but bank transfers remain the main way to fund accounts.

We appreciate this won’t be for everyone, but thank you for giving Chip a try.

If you have any further questions, feel free to reach out via the in-app chat.
